You know Tampa Bay Rays starter Ryan Yarbrough was good, but do you know how good he was last season?
Tampa Bay Rays pitcher Ryan Yarbrough appeared to have made the transition from bulk guy to starting pitcher last season. He was a heavy favorite heading into 2020’s spring training at taking one of the rotation spots behind Charlie Morton, Blake Snell, and Tyler Glasnow.
We know Yarbrough was good, but when pitchers don’t have the gaudy strikeout numbers that capture the imaginations of baseball fans today, they can be overlooked.
